A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on November 24, 2019.

Inaccurate summary of the resolution

The second sentence of the fourth paragraph originally read, "The tariff rates were reduced and stayed low to the satisfaction of the South, and the states’ rights doctrine of nullification had been rejected by the nation."

The emphasized clause contradicts other Wikipedia articles, including the linked article on states' rights which itemizes subsequent efforts to nullify Federal law, including current efforts to nullify the Federal prohibition of the medicinal use of marijuana, as well as the article on the Fugitive Slave Act.

I replaced the emphasized clause with "remained controversial, asserted again by opponents of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, the Legal Tender Act of 1862 (nullified by California's Specific Contract Act of 1863) and Federal acts prohibiting the sale and possession of marijuana for medical use in the first decade of the 21st century." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.242.78.137 (talk) 12:10, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure I am writing thus is the correct place. But at the top of the article it reads that the crisis ended in 1837. Shouldn't this have read 1833? Wgb8210 (talk) 13:30, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Underlinking?

Really? In what way? Bagunceiro (talk) 13:56, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not entirely sure, though I'm not the one who put that notice up. Last night, I added Wikilinks to most of the article, though I wasn't able to finish. However, IMO, it seems like there are enough of them. I think I'll finish adding Wikilinks, though, before I make the suggestion that the notice be removed.

Well, I finished that, and now I think it doesn't need the Underlinking notice, but I may be wrong. Greengreengreen red 20:41, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nullification Crisis → Nullification crisis – Per WP:AT article titles use sentence case unless it's a proper noun, and this one isn't. deisenbe (talk) 18:00, 3 February 2020 (UTC)—Relisting. DannyS712 (talk) 18:54, 11 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:04, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Opposed The books and articles listed in the bibliography all capitalise Crisis as a proper noun; much of the lower case in the article is because of the proposer. Timrollpickering (Talk) 01:51, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging original proposer and opposer: deisenbe, Timrollpickering –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:04, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support. A (non-exhaustive) search on Google Books finds many using "nullification crisis", but only one that I could find that capitalized it. (Didn't take note of which ones I found, sorry). –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:07, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Deacon. Searches show that if anything a majority don't capitalise, and it certainly isn't "consistently capitalized in a substantial majority of independent, reliable sources", as required by MOS:CAPS. — Amakuru (talk) 09:50, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
